SuperSAINT Posted 26 January, 2016 Share Posted 26 January, 2016 We always seem to get someone off our books before buying someone else in. With Gaston going perhaps we have a number 10 coming in? Going by current links, guess that could be Vilhena in the summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 26 January, 2016 Share Posted 26 January, 2016 More Prem strikers on the move? SWANSEA EYE GAYLE Swansea are leading the fight to land striker Dwight Gayle from Premier League rivals Crystal Palace, according to Sky sources. The deal is expected to prompt the departure of former Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis from the Liberty Stadium. Palace broke their club record when they brought Gayle to Selhurst Park from Peterborough for £6m in July 2013. But Palace are unlikely to allow the 26-year-old leave on the cheap if he decides to move on in the January transfer window. What's happened with him? I thought he had a fairly decent season last season but has had a bit part this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadhall Saint Posted 26 January, 2016 Share Posted 26 January, 2016 I'd rather have Ziyech too, trust me I just had a look at a couple of YouTube vids and he does look quite tidy - two footed but prefers his left - can spot a pass both short and long, has a good shot on him and knows where the goal is (not many cliches there then). My only concern was he standard of some of the defenders he was up against. Overall thought he looked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth be told, we have the best coaching team when it comes to rating a player from that league, so if we think he can do a job I'm sure we will be interested.

This is what I don't understand he looked a real prospect last season but has hardly played this year even when Palace can't seem to buy a goal, similar to the Reed situation here there must be something more going on!

SuperSAINT Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 A rumoured old target of ours... EDER LATEST Our Sky colleagues in Italy say the representatives of Sampdoria striker Eder flew to England yesterday to listen to Leicester's proposal of a three-year contract. It seems the player would prefer to stay in Italy to get more of a chance to be in Italy's Euro squad. Inter are favourites to sign the Italy international.

Saint Matty 76 Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 Think this window is over for us now, already looking ahead to the Summer personally. OUT: Sadio Mane, Victor Wanyama, Graziano Pelle, Juanmi, Maarten Stekelenburg Would leave the squad looking like... GK: Fraser Forster / NEW / Paulo Gazzaniga LB: Ryan Bertrand / Matt Targett CB: Jose Fonte / Florin Gardos Virgil van Dijk / Maya Yoshida RB: Cedric Soares / Cuco Martina CDM: NEW / Oriol Romeu Jordy Clasie / Harrison Reed LW: Jay Rodriguez / NEW CAM: NEW / James Ward-Prowse RW: Dusan Tadic / Steven Davis ST: Charlie Austin / Shane Long That comes out as 4 signings that could end up being a necessity, however I wouldn't be surprised to see another CB and ST come in also.

Batman Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 I wonder how Gardos will fare when he's back as well? If 3 at the back is a way forward (not constantly, granted) then we need to replace yoshida with a left sided, fairly quick, decent CB we will obviously need to bring in a keeper. At what level I dont know. Obviously, replace Mane and Wanyama with actual quality (not another Juanmi) should they leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADutchSaint Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 Well he's 33, i dont see any club signing him as a number one anymore after the last 5/6 years he had. Well maybe a Dutch club would but he would have to take a giant wage cut and why clown around in Holland at that age when you can sit comfortable on the bench at Southampton?

CB Fry Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 #Lovren Who we more than doubled our money on and who kicked off. VVD has so far performed the the standard of a £12m signing.

VectisSaint Posted 27 January, 2016 Share Posted 27 January, 2016 we simply have to replace yoshida Surely about the one thing we don't need to do is replace Yoshida. He is already the more than competent backup for the left sided CB, either in a 4 or a 3. We also have Gardos for the right side, once he is fit again. With Stephens and Turnbull coming through as well, the CB position with Bertrand showing he is well capable of playing on left of a 3 is the one area where additions and not only not needed but highly unlikely. Just so long as we get proper backup for Cedric, so that there is never ever a reason for Ronald to play Yoshida at RB again, we do not need to replace Yoshida. Besides how can you replace the irreplaceable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No CL level team will want to give us £25m for him. You might be surprised then. If VVD keeps putting in performances like he has so far i dont doubt it for a second that Arsenal comes in sooner then people might think. VVD has been linked with Arsenal already a few times when he played at Celtic and according to rumors they even put in a last minute bid on him in the summer of 2014 after they sold Vermaelen to Barca and Celtic removed Virgil from the squad for a week because he wanted to go. Virgil is still only 24 and there arent a lot of defenders that put in better performances as he does. And i dont know about you but i take him over Mertesacker any day. I hope he stays and i think players should always stay at least 2 years at a club but i expect its going to be just a matter of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
